to report to the House the Senate proposition for
a Constitutional amendment changing Inaugura-

April, with an amendment embodying the Grain
bill to change the time OF meeting OF the Fifty

A SMALL FIRE

And = Collision, i'm which a
Woman Gets Hurt.
Yesterday afternoon at 3 O'Clock a.
alarm of fire from the corner Of Mair
and Third streets brought out the Fire
Department. Main street was crowded
with people and two or three panics en-
sued - the engines came rattling along Il
. gallop. When the 3Sth's engine was
approaching First street, light wagon,
in which were Mr.. and Mrs. Vicente
Botells, turned into Main. and in trying
to get out Of the way were caught by
one Of the rails Of the Hellman track.
Before they could get of, Mounted Po-
liceman Arguello, who was riding along
fast to warn people out Of the course Of
the engine and hose cart, ran into Botel-
los vehicle, the shock throwing the
horse back and breaking one Of the
wheels clean of Mrs. Botello was
thrown ont of the wagon and hurt her
ankle. She ives very much frightened,
and very nearly became hysteYioAL Or
6cer Arguello's horse was slightly hart.
Botello did not let 10 the reins, and his
horse was prevented from running
away by the bystanden. When the
engines got to the place Of the 6re it
was found that they were not needed.
A drunken man had got into . room at
200 South Main street, and probably
had smoked . pipe whilst lying on the
bed. The straw mattress had caught
fire and the straw had al burned up
smoulderingly, causing . dense smoke.
There was no one In the room, and the
door was looked when the FIRE was dis.
covered by an employe Of the New
York Brewery.
